This volume in the Springer Series on Surface Sciences presents a recent account of advances in the ever-broadening field of electron-and photon-stimulated sur- face processes.
Der Einsatz objektorientierter Datenbanksysteme zur Datenverwaltung in ingenieurwissenschaftlichen Anwendungen erfordert zum einen eine weitreichende Integration der Anwender in den Datenbankentwurfsprozeß, zum anderen ergeben sich neue, bisher nur unzureichend berücksichtigte Anforderungen im Hinblick auf den Softwareentwurf.
Progress made during the last few years in nonlinear opticsand quantum electronics has significantly increased ourunderstanding of the interactionbetween light and matter.
Owing to the increased availability of synchrotron sources,surface X-ray scattering is a rapidly expanding techniquewith important applications to surface structures andsurface phase transitions, roughening of surfaces andinterfaces, and the structure of liquid surfaces, includingpolymers, liquid crystals, and organic films.
Das Buch behandelt eine Problemstellung, die mit zunehmender Automatisierung der Fertigung (CIM) verschärft auftritt: die Sicherstellung von kollisionsfreien Bahnen für Industrieroboter.
The 1990 International Topical Meeting on Photonic Switching was held April 12-14, 1990, in Kobe, Japan, in conjunction with the 1990 International Meet- ing on Optical Computing.
This book contains the written record of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Traditional and Non-Traditional Robotic Sensors held in the Hotel Villa del Mare, Maratea, Italy, August 28 - September 1, 1989.
Limp materials are used in many economically impo~tant industries such as garment manufacture, shoe manufacture, aerospace (composites) and automobiles (seats and trim).
The book treats the C -hydrocarbons and their secondary products as a contribution 4 to chemical engineering economics, applying this field of teaching and research to the technical processes for making and processing this group of products, so important to the chemical industry.
Modern polymer materials are designed by applying principles of correlation between chemical structure, physical macrostructure and technological properties.
The papers presented at the Second International Conference on Robotics and Factories of the Future held in San Diego, California, USA during July 28-31, 1987 are compiled in this volume.
This volume contains the Proceedings of the International Workshop on the Design of Power Sonic and Ultrasonic Transducers, which was held in the Maison de l'Entreprise et des Technologies Nouvelles, Marcq en Baroeul, near Lille, France, on May 26 and 27, 1987.
les Houches This Winter School on "e;The Physics and Fabrication of Microstructures"e; originated with a European industrial decision to investigate in some detail the potential of custom-designed microstructures for new devices.
The publication of proceedings of conferences has often been so delayed that they are useless both to active workers in the field and for cur- rently appropriate teaching.
The German original of this Handbook of Loss Prevention was compiled during the course of many years' work by the engineers of the Department for Engineering Insurances, the scientists of the Allianz Centre for Technology and representatives of industry.
The direct current transmission scheme linking the island of Gotland to the main- land of Sweden by means of a submarine cable under the Baltic Sea is the first commercial realisation of a modern technique for the transmission of electrical energy.
If the early stages of a disease begin with the involvement of a small area of cells or tissue, the early diagnosis of pathologic changes by means of radio- graphy should concentrate first on the detection of such minute changes.
After more than a decade of successful application of cardiac pace- makers in the therapy of cardiac rhythm disorders, technological and clinical experience has reached a level, at which a technical survey of this field should be of general interest and might promote the further improvement of pace- maker therapy.
